Summary
Emergency veterinarian with 25 years of experience of predominantly overnight shifts. Experience has been wide ranging and extensive and often required self- reliance and initiative. Interest at this time is shifting to less generalized emergency situations and would like to focus more narrowly such as on toxicology cases. Toxicology has been a frequent part of the emergency practice. Have interacted with veterinarians from ASPCA Poison Control many times over the years.
